Clarence Harrison was wrongly convicted in 1987 for the kidnapping, rape, and robbery of a 25 year old woman in Decatur, Georgia. The rape victim and the person who gave the police a tip both picked Clarence out in the police lineup. Clarence was sentenced to life in prison based on identification. In 2003 Clarence wrote the Georgia Innocents Project stating that he was innocent. Interns from Georgia State and Emory college of Law began their investigation and found that Clarence was innocent based on DNA testing. "Regardless of the lost 18 years of my life, always having to traveling with an alibi, and missing my mothers funeral. I am proud to be alive and to have my life back," said Clarence.

Melanie Hammet, a musician, composer, an elected Vice Mayor in her hometown of Pine Lake, Ga, and a volunteer for the Georgia Innocents Project heard the story of Clarence Harrison, a wrongly convicted man who severed 18 years in prison. "I wanted to help but didn't know how. How do you help a man who lost 18 years of his life for something he didn't do?" Said Melanie. After meeting and talking with Clarence Melanie was inspired to write. "I wrote songs based on his stories, experiences, and thoughts. I am proud that my music can help him in some way," said Melanie. Melanie has collaborated with the Georgia Innocence Project to produce an album called “Life Sentence: I Am An Innocent Man." A majority of the funds will go to helping Clarence.
